| [Embed For Use By Upgraded+] I fell kinda behind on this after I gave up on my computer because it was being slow. I also kinda fell behind in school and was playing catch-up with that too, during the second half of the week.  Anyways, this song was my mood all of Sunday, so I'm using it now.  I would say this probably describes my current relationship with school. I need it in order to become a teacher. The school I'm in is supposed to be the best program, locally, of the state universities. Yet, half my classes are on different schedules- some are week 3, another, week 4, another starts this week. Some professors were nice and decided that Week 1 wouldn't count because of the MLK long weekend, so Week 2 was our real Week 1, and then another online class was lacking a professor for a couple days.... my Chinese class originally got cancelled, and then it was reinstated, only to find out on the first day that the higher-ups were thinking about cancelling it again due to low enrollment, "so please don't get your textbooks yet".... and then a day or two later, they confirmed it was a go-ahead. And that, folks, is how to cause a headache for students taking all online classes. I went to an open house for a school with a bilingual program that was a reasonable drive (30 minutes via local streets) away in another district, because our district doesn't have a Chinese bilingual program for any K-8 grades (Chinese language classes don't count ) and I met the principal during the tour, then emailed the principal afterwards, but she didn't reply. So that's a no-go. The next closest one is about 45 minutes away, via the freeway. So, chances are, I'm withdrawing from this Chinese class.  I just don't have the time to drive 45 minutes to a school for observation- especially if school starts at 8 or 8:30.... that's kinda prime traffic time, too. Going back to the song, that first verse is how I feel about school. It's a losing game, honestly. I have realized my limit, and 5 classes with 3 jobs is past it. Even my coworkers all wonder why I need 3 jobs.... one is for the money (retail), one is for the connections, and honestly, the music one? I don't even know at this point. |
